fuel pumps, Running Duals
how much horse power can you support on dual turbo fuel pumps
what will the pressure be?
pumps ran in parallel
what is the lph on a stcck pump
thanks

Power is relative, so I'm not going to answer that
Pressure is whatever your FPR is set to?
If I remember right, around 160-ish
Why in the world would you want to use those though? It's definatly not very difficult to replace with a better single unit.

One pump can rough support about 250bhp at the FLYWHEEL.
Thus, if you run them in parallel, in theory, it can support 500bhp at the FLYWHEEL.
If you run them in series, you just up'd the maximum pressure the fuel pumps can attain; flow is not affected significantly.
As described initially, when you run the fuel pumps in parallel, flow rate is roughly doubled.
The problem is that the experts recommend running separate sumps for each fuel pump.
I know it's very popular just to stuff two fuel pumps on the same bracket, and this runs counter to what is recommended.
The flow rate is posted in the FSM.
It is approximately 180lph.

It's a lot easier to just get one upgraded pump. For example, the Walbro. Two pumps is cool for the "wow" factor, but there are many single pumps on the market that support stupidly high power levels. The Walbro itself can handle high 400s.

One of those can handle almost 800 HP.

Haha, I don't even hear it.... Who knows what boost I'll be running, so I figured I'd overkill the setup, and their flow @ the pressure i'll be running alone didn't make me all too happy. Though, I'm pondering just selling the two and getting their elminator one instead
